Foliar application of Daminozide at 1000 ppm reduces the growth of Salvia officinalis (sage) and decreases essential oil yield, but increases both growth and essential oil yield of Mentha piperita at the same concentration. Ethephon at 250 ppm reduces the growth and essential oil yield of peppermint and slightly increases growth and essential oil content of sage. Both growth regulators markedly reduce the level of menthone and menthol in peppermint oil and increase the level of isomenthone and neoisomenthol. Both growth regulators decrease the level of camphor and increase the level of β-pinene in sage oil. Changes in essential oil composition induced by these growth regulators are most readily explained by alterations in the levels or activities of the relevant biosynthetic enzymes.
